Achilles Tendonitis
The Achilles tendon attaches the calf muscles to the back of the ankle to facilitate movement at the ankle joint. Achilles tendonitis is common in individuals who participate in running and jumping sports. Pain is experienced on walking or running or squeezing the tendon.
What causes Achilles Tendonitis?
It is commonly caused by a sudden increase in training, a change in training- like hill running, poor footwear or poor running gait.
What is the best treatment?
If Achilles injuries are not treated early, they can linger on for months interfering significantly with an athletes programme and general well being. A qualified physiotherapist will examine your training programme, your foot wear, your muscle length and your running gait.
